Hi All,
Does anyone know where I might find a list of the names, ranks and units of the Prussian troops killed at Waterloo? (Preferably from multiple units, but if it's only from a single unit, that would still be useful.
Many thanks
Zack
The Wallons may perhaps live there, but the name is Dutch or Flemish. So here we have no problem to pronounce Waterloo. The end is like the french word for water l'eau. Simpel to remember.
v. Plotho Band 4 Beilage XIX.
As Alfred Brans already mentioned
Plotho, Carl von : Der Krieg des verbündeten Europa gegen Frankreich im Jahre 1815, Berlin 1818
It is available on line.
Oliver Schmidt was so nice to give me more information for other sources
My toe nails cringe if I see Prussians referred to the railway station in London, maybe you mean Belle Alliance 😉😉
That's something else that we discuss over the course of the Waterloo Remembered series!
Hopefully also how to pronounce the infamous W - word as it is done by the Wallons who live there.

Thank you both for this. I'm chasing it up!
